ProcessAlive Lets You Restart Crashed Programs Automatically

ProcessAlive is a little tool designed to restart crashed programs automatically. It is useful if you have a background program that occasionally crashes and want to restart it without a user intervention or you can use this tool to run the same program repeatedly. This is especially useful if you are running a game or web server.

This Windows program is very simple to use. Just run it (no installation required), select a program that you wish to monitor by clicking the “+” icon (currently it allow to select programs with an .exe extension). Add any number of programs to the list, then click ‘Keep these programs alive’ button.

ProcessAlive continuously scans all the running programs on your computer from the system tray. If it notices that one of your selected processes is no longer running, it will re-launch the program.

ProcessAlive is still a work-in-progress app. Interested users can download it from developer’s web site here.
